Nono they gave us the book don't worry about that everything you need should be on the e-mail they sent you! xx

Ah right, that's good thankyou! the only thing I've been told to take is my GCSE certificates and a passport/birth certificate. How long did it take for them to give you a response after your interview? xx

I was on the borderline with Northumbria so it took them a good 3 months but those who got interviewed on the same day as me and were a clear rejection/offer heard back within 3 - 4 weeks Yeah I think that's all I had to do for mine as well as my reference x

As in I hadn't performed as well as others on the day so didn't get an offer, but they didn't want to reject me as i hadn't done really bad so i didn't get a straight rejection either!

And not really I didn't really prepare that much for mine if I'm honest :/ I found Northumbria the hardest to prepare for because I didn't get given much information! Just do your best it's all you can do, everyone's in the same boat xx

Ahh thankyou I'm sooo happy! But just need to work my little bum off to get the grades now. Do you know if they take AS grades into ucas points? Cause I know some universities allow you to use AS grades aslong as you didn't continue the subject at A2.

Ummm I think they might count but don't quote me on it I didn't take the proper A level route I did a Level 3 diploma, 6 unit BTEC and an EPQ! You can always e-mail the admissions and check with them, but if Northumbria are anything like last year they're a pain in the backside to respond to you. Really put me off going! x

hello, i have had an interview at ysj, and parents stay with you most of the time! they are allowed to come in for the presenations, and then they just wait outside when you do your tests. then you all have a tour round the uni then again they wait outside when its your group interview. then its dinner so you are with your parents. then you wait for your individual interview with your parents. so really they are not alone for most of the day!! hope that helps xx
